The theatre is a large, well proper
toned building, with four galleries, rather
dingy, but much better than any theatre
in eastern towns Of the size of Salt Lake
City. The audience was largely composed
of women. Groups of four or six of these
were attended by one man, and many of
them came quite without escort. They
were dressed, If without taste, still with
out vulgarity, and among the younger ones
saw several very pretty girlish faces, some
Of which would have been more attract
i've II an improvement on natures colors
had not been attempted.
The appearance of the men was in
finitely repulsive. Coarse and heavy faces
they had, for the most part, with a stupid,
animal expression. l had almost written
british. Hard faces, too, without mobil-
ity or kindliness. They wear the beard
full, with the upper lip shaven. If the
as Is often said, it is as well, possibly, that
the majority Of mankind wear it covered,
for the tale these Mormon mouths told
was was not q pleasant one to read. Many
nationalities were to be traced in the as
sembly-pale faced Swedes and rudy
Welsh folk; the sandy Scotchman was not
wanting, nor yet the swarthy Chinese; but
best among them all to see was the deli
cate face of q Gentle, q young officer from
the fort near by, sitting alone amidst a
group of saints, who regarded him with
anything but amiable glances Cor. Bos-

But, speaking of traditions, 1 might say
that these people possess a great many of
them. 1t is, however, very difficult to in
duce an Eskimo to speak of such things or
of his religious beliefs. The only way of
extracting u information from an Es-
kimo is to make him your friend, and then
getting him away from his companions
promise that you will not tell them what
he may tell you, and having done this to
draw him step by step into the line of
conversation you want to get at.
One of their traditions is about the flood,
and l think it is particularly interesting,
as it is one of many similar legends held
by the savage tribes. The Eskimos say
that n very long time ago there was n
great ram, which flooded the earth and
destroyed all men except q few who con
structed a large boat out Of a number of
small ones and used 1t as q means OF
escape. After n while the poor creatures,
being exposed to the fury Of the storm in
their open boat, began to be cold and un-
comfortable; so their chief, standing up,
threw his spears and ornaments into the
waters, and this was sufficient to pacify
them and they subsidized. They have also
Il romantic legend about the origin of the

In South Brooklyn there are shanties or
rather wooden houses in the last stage Of
dilapidation around the factories, which
shelter a vast number of Italians. Some
times a door swings open and let's out n
vile, pestiferous odor, partl from the
rags which the Calabrians are Ihifbing and
sorting, partly from she Gala ,riahs them
selves They appear to be very degraded
citizens, indeed, and are more animal and
less rational han is safe in a republican
country. On Sunday one may hear from
these novels a perfect series of what one
supposes to be violent threats, in staccato
accents; but 1t is nothing Of the kind, only
two ragpickers playing the national game
of mora, which consists Of throwing into
the air so many fingers and guessing how
many there are appraised in the four grimy
hands. They are wonderfully expert and
yell out the numbers with lightning like
rapidity, but the ono that loses is gener
ally tempted TO settle account with his
sheath knife-perfectly proper in the Bas-
ilicuta or in the Calabrian mountains, but
not exactly the thing in Brooklyn

a POPULAR FallacY.

1t is a popular fallacy that the use of
glasses should be delayed as long as pos
sible, for fear they will become indis-
pensable. The fact is that among civ
ilized reading and thinking beings who
have any proper appreciation of the value
of time they have already become indis-
pensable to those who can work more
easily with them han without them. We
have all better use for our strength than
to waste it in a gymnastic contest against
time, when we are sure to be losers in the
end.
By working the cillary muscle very
hard we car overcome the rigidity of the
lens even after it has ceased to respond
to ordinary efforts. But persistence in
such effort merely obliges us to close our
books earlier in the day, and lose in time
what cannot be made up by the satisfac-
ton Of being still independent of glasses.
WEAKNESS, neuralgia, nervous prostra-
ton and other ills are the rewards of too
great obstinacy in such n course. Glasses
bear the same relation to civilized life as
surface cars, carriages and other modern
conveniences We could get along with
out them. But why should wallpapers
Bazaar.

A postofice employe who has worn the
uniform of Uncle Sam since the days fol-
lowing the close of the war, when he
doffed the blue to don the gray, wants to
know II / realize the amount OF heart
breaking, soul destroying and body wear
ing labor that postofice clerks are called
upon to undergo. Take it, " he remarks,
Sin this department, for instance-that of
registered mail matter. 1t is work, work,
work from early morning until late at
night, and when it is all done, what is
there to show for its Nothing; absolutely
nothing. A mass Of records and a column
of figures, it is true, but these tell little
of the expenditure of brain tissue and the
wear and tear upon physical endurance
which their making up entails. Hundreds
of thousands of dollars, in valuable docu-
ments and packages, pass through the
hands Of the clerks in this department an
nually. The government guarantees an
absolutely safe delivery, and its guarantee
is religiously fulfilled. The slightest slip
carries with it the penalty of dismissal.
A small army of special agents keep the
employees under constant surveillance and
espionage.
"a man must have the postoffices of
the country ON his tongue and fingers
end. He must be prepared to supply de-
f~lcieRcies in addresses, furnish the names
Of county and state for any given town,
and be thoroughly familiar with the rates
of postage, foreign and domestic. The
kline and quality Of questionings to which
he is subjected every day of his expert
ence would make a volume of interesting
and instructive reading; and he must have
the patience Of a Job and the philosophy
Of a Diogenes to shield him from bringing
dow upon his head the wrath and venge-
fulness of unreasoning, illiterate and heed
less customers Of the postofice depart
ment. A mail clerks lot, under the best
conditions, is not ordinarily a happy one;

THE DEAD

The forty-ninth congress adjourned SINE
die yesterday at noon. 1t would be use
less to expect that the frivolous para
grapher or the end man in a minstrel
show will forego this opportunity for the
repetition of their ancient gibes and Jokes
With a certain class all legislative bodies
are regarded as extremely funny and
altogether useless institutions, and any
thing in the line OF wit that is thought to
apply to them or to any of them is con-
sidered smart. We shall not, therefore,
escape the usual grotesque exaggerations
and foolish Misrepresentation now that
the forty-ninth congress has gone the way
of its predecessors.
With people who look upon the Amer
lean congress as 1t is, however, and who
appreciate that it stands as the highest
expression of the self governing principle.
the fact will not be lost sight of hat this
body has done two things, at least, which
entitle it to the praise of the American
people. When it assembled. four con-
crosses. with the dangers and warnings
OF 1877 before them, had met and ad-
journed without acting upon the vital
question of counting the electoral vote,
thus leaving the country exposed to the
menace of civil war which was only pre-
vented in 1877 by the forbearance and
patriotism of the Democratic leaders. The
presidential succession, too. was so con-
trived as to leave the country headless in
contingencies likely to arise at any time,
and though wise men had frequently
pointed out the dangers, nothing had been
done to remedy them when the last con-
gress met.
Now both these questions have been
settled, perhaps not permanently settled
nor wisely settled, but settled nevertheless
according to the best lights which mem
bers of congress had before them. Laws
that were meant to be so plain that he
who runs may read, have been passed by
the last congress for the regulation not
only OF the counting of the electoral vote
and the settlement of all controversies
likely to arise under hat operation, but
for the settlement of the presidential sue
cession in the event of the death of both
the president and vice president. If the
forty-ninth congress had done nothing
else, it could not be lruthfully said that it
had failed of its duty. 1t has done many
other things that have been creditable.
II the next shall be equally active, it will
not fail to attack the ever swelling reve-
nues and relieve The tax payers of some of
their burdens.

@. V. Baxter, an experienced and sue
cessful druggist at Dewitt, Ia, says one
family there created an immense sale for
Chamberlain's cough remedy by using it
and recommending it to their neighbors,
during their siege of whooping cough;
now it sells rapidly on its merits; it has no
equal for coughs, cords and Group. Sold

A BILL has recently been passed in
Indiana which prohibits the employment
of children under IA years of age on the
stage. 1t also prohibits the posting or
display of bills which represent violence,
bloodshed. terror, fear or suffering. This
latter clause is similar to a law in effect in
the state OF Michigan.

THE termination of Ben Harrison's en-
gagement in the United States senate will
give him an opportunity to see about
erecting a monument to his grandfather,
who lies in a neglected grave.

THE discussion of the question as to
whether United States senators should be
elected by the people is pretty sure, before
it is ended, to involve another, to-wit,
whether the present unequal representa-
ton of the people in the senate shall not
also be done way with or modified.

AMONG a number of bills of a public
nature that died with the forty-ninth con-
gress or failed to be approved by the pres
ident, the most important are the forti6-
cation, the river and harbor and the gen
eral deficiency appropriation bills.

SAM JONES, the evangelist. may or may
not be a soul saver, but he is certainly a
money getter. 1t is said that his months
work in Boston netted him and Brother
Isl" Small $4,000. This shows how
much better religious sensationalism pays
than hard. steady, sensible pulpit work.

Mr.. GLADSTONE not only breaches
fair and Just dealing with Ireland but he
practices it by reducing the rents of his
tenants. This kind of practice is better
than any kind OF preaching.
